Needle-
or safety pin.
Meets flesh. [ouch]
[something done 1 too many times to me]
Pricked it!
Accident...
It bleeds-
Little crimson drops. [drip]
Blood.
Liquid life.
They say-
It's thicker than water [h2o]
But not always.
It isn't the bonds.
Of a red substance.
Love. Loyalty. Trust. Faith.
[all the biggies]
Are the ties,
That bind.
Ties-
Of friends
Of family.
Hold this world together.
Blood runs,
And doesn't always matter.
Blood binds,
And isn't always solidarity.
Family doesn't always
mean blood.
And nor does blood
always mean family.
Friends
At times
Fill the family in.
Trust, loyalty, love and faith.
Make a family.
Not always blood.
